The availability and connectivity for part-time jobs are unsatisfactory.
Tips: I had lots of cultural shocks mostly all good. I received a scholarship of 7500 NZD, which was through my agent. I would suggest thoroughly researching immigration, especially when applying with an agent. I would also suggest paying the full course fee and getting all living expenses transferred for the entire duration. I am very satisfied with my decision.
Likes (Indian Food): So I'm not a big fan of Indian food. There are many restaurants offering it, but the taste is quite different, often sweeter. However the food can be customised. The pricing is high so I prefer cooking for myself. But fast food joints like McDonald's and Domino's are cheaper.
Dislikes (Part time work): The availability and connectivity for part time jobs are unsatisfactory. While some courses include internships mine does not. Consequently job searching is difficult as the market is saturated. The university offers many volunteer opportunities but I received little to no support in securing a part time position although they do assist with CVs and interview preparation.
Total Monthly ExpenseNZD 1400
